Good Article review needed

[edit]

This article received its Good Article rating on 23 October 2005 from an editor who hearkened back to a kinder, gentler era when it was not outside of norms to just simply plonk down a Good Article tag for no other reason than WP:ILIKEIT. Alas, the standards for retaining this pretty green trinket have tightened over time; in the present regime, someone unassociated with writing this article (a reviewer) should examine the article with respect to the good article criteria and, on the various standards cited, expresses up, down, or neutral sentiments, plus an aggregate sentiment, upon which retaining the pretty little trinket relies.

By posting this remark here, I'm not suggesting that the article has gone bad or presently fails the criteria, but I am noting the absence of a review that is a hallmark of the present process, and, in the fullness of time, a review should be performed on this article. With the absence of a review, this article is a delisting candidate. Note that, for an editor to delist this article, the due-diligence of a good article review is required. Otherwise, how might a delisting editor justify his or her delisting, or offer cogent reasons why the Good Article mark should remain? In either case, anything short of a fair review is unfair to editors who contribute to this article regularly and in good faith. Drop any questions about this on my talk page.

"Recent eruptions" section

[edit]

The "Recent eruptions" section currently contains very little about recent eruptions. For a while it contained simply "It is currently erupting" with no punctuation and no explanation. It should perhaps be changed to "Tourism" and any eruption facts added to the "Geological history" section. Some sources for eruption history:

GA Reassessment

[edit]

This discussion is transcluded from Talk:Pacaya/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the reassessment. In order to uphold the quality of Wikipedia:Good articles, all articles listed as Good articles are being reviewed against the GA criteria as part of the GA project quality task force. While all the hard work that has gone into this article is appreciated, unfortunately, as of September 8, 2008, this article fails to satisfy the criteria, as detailed below. For that reason, the article has been delisted from WP:GA. However, if improvements are made bringing the article up to standards, the article may be nominated at WP:GAN. If you feel this decision has been made in error, you may seek remediation at WP:GAR.

  • This article is completely lacking in citations.

inline citations

[edit]

I added inline citations for this article. When I found the article, it had zero inline citations. There are no inline citations for a source by the American Geophysical Union. How does it fit into the references list using the {{reflist}} template? TravelAuthor (talk) 08:29, 15 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
